Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Sede Vacante period, which means "empty seat" in Latin, referring to the period between the death of a Pope and the election of a new one. This coin was minted in 1621, during the Sede Vacante that followed the death of Pope Paul V.
